Hi Graham,

I just saw this: https://ask.wireshark.org/question/8014/hosts-file-manager/
  
My first impulse was "put the hosts in a profile directory and switch it via profiles", but when I tested that it didn't work (no names resolved). I'm not sure if the hosts file is even read when it's in a profile directory, or where exactly Wireshark expects a hosts file. Do you know if that's supposed to work?
  
Cheers,
Jasper
